Note that currently you also can get both "30 charger points, each as own object" and "single station mapped once" so situation will get better, not worse. >> Of course tags like capacity and socket would give indications. >> > > If tagged, but plenty exist without those: > https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1ta8 > > Yes, problem exists also now anyway. <ad> StreetComplete asks about this missing info </ad> >> And if amenity=charging_station is tagged as an area around a >> number of charge points, that would be a group. >> > > That'd need to be a spatially-aware query, and I wouldn't assume that > data consumers can easily do that.

How you distinguish "marks group of chargers" and "marks single charger within group of chargers" now? Is it "ideally proposal would introduce this ability" or "proposal breaks existing ability"?
